Hello!

Welcome to the Puppet Tavern


Who am I, you ask?

My name is Nicholas Bennett, and for roughly a quarter of a century, I have been working in hospitality, specifically bars and spirits. I was fortunate to lead the bar team as Beverage Director at Porchlight, Danny Mayer’s first stand-alone bar, and as Head Bartender at Booker and Dax with Dave Arnold.

Suppose I didn’t have the opportunity to serve you a drink at one of these bars. In that case, you might have heard me talk about the fantastic benefits of aging Egg Nog or how underappreciated the Seven & 7 and Long Island Iced Tea is on some podcast or article.

Either way, I am happy that you found me.
